On my last trip to Sephora, I saw something new on the Benefit counter. “Velvet” eyeshadows are powder eyeshadows, in packaging that’s very similar to Shu Uemura’s. They’re $18 each, with an incredibly soft, lovely texture. The shades are soft and softly shimmery, and I expect cool brown / warm grey / taupe Where There’s Smoke… to be an instant favorite. I thought Fawn Over Me and Bikini Line looked pretty nice too.

Velvet eyeshadows are available at Sephora or at your Benefit counter.
